Body, Child, Light, Crime by Owen FitzGerald Out Now
Welcome to the world, baby. We’re happy you’re here.
Over the course of just 12 minutes and 10 seconds, Owen strides between ideations on body dysmorphia, the Sisyphus-like plight of present-day public servants, death’s first name, and an all-business Cool Hand Luke here to stuff Donald Trump full of eggs and save us from ourselves.
Even in the EP’s more gently-produced tracks (maybe especially so), there’s a fervor that many of us today feel in one way or another. Sometimes we channel it into nuanced dialogue and support for folks who bear the heaviest burden of our absurd socio-political situation. Other times, the levee breaks and we’re tumbling in a flood of rage and confusion. We might still appear calm, but we’re beyond patience with idiots.
Enjoy this gorgeous work and manifest your relationship with Owen into physical reality by buying a cassette!
